THE NEW ORDER ISSUE 33 : UNTITLED - KEN CARSON
We are delighted to announce the release of THE NEW ORDER issue 33 (winter 2024), the final instalment celebrating the 15th year of the publication.
THE NEW ORDER ISSUE 33 features three covers:
SLAM JAM and Luca Benini has been a main stay in the industry and as Slam Jam celebrates its 35th anniversary we thought it was perfect timing to celebrate one of the lynchpins of the industry. We paid the Slam Jam headquarters in Ferrara, Italy a visit to capture the man and the archive, nothing short of impressive. Speaking candidly about what has changed over time, both within Slam Jam and the industry it was a pleasure to get a honest insight into the workings of everything around Benini.
KEN CARSON, photographed by Kenneth Cappello with great distinction makes for a bold cover feature. Ken Carson has been on the rise in recent years and we had the privilege to creat his in-depth editorial as well as sit down with Ken carson and discus his background and what defines his sound.
Next up is Beate Skonare Karlsson, the creative source behind AVAVAV, a hugely talented name in the fashion world who is creating an entire new vision in the industry. Making really distinctive garments and conceptual work, we have taken an in-depth look into he AVAVAV project with adidas that has made a lot of noise of late.
